From 3eb1006a3b3e8587b1ec9efd9e92df91f364726e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yevgeny Kliteynik Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2020 15:06:49 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: DR, Sync chunks only during free When freeing chunks, we want to sync the steering so that all the "hot" memory will be written to ICM and all the chunks that are in the hot_list will be actually destroyed. When allocating from the pool, we don't have a need to sync the steering, as we're not freeing anything, and sync might just hurt the performance in terms of flow-per-second offloaded.
